       "This is the Midgar Mayor's Office.  Mayor Domino is in his office."
       "I am the Deputy Mayor.  If you should have any questions feel free to
        ask me..."
!Talk to the mayor
Domino: "Hmm?  Oh, and who might you be?"
        "You all must be those... ahem... Me?  I'm Domino, the Mayor of
         Midgar."
        "Actually, I'm Mayor in name only.  The city and everything in it is
         really run by Shinra, Inc."
        "My only real job is watching over Shinra's documents..."
        "Me!  The Mayor!  A librarian!  Ohh......"
        "You want to get upstairs?  I tell you what, if you can guess the
         password, I'll give you my keycard."
        "Yes, that's it.  Guess the password and I'll give you my keycard!"
        "Get it on the first try and I'll even throw in a special item!"
(!Talk to Hart
 >If you haven't received any hints yet
   Hart: "Did you speak with the Mayor?"
         "What?  A password?  Oh, I get it..."
         "He's got way too much time on his hands.  But you can't really blame
          him, Everything in Midgar is controlled by President Shinra."
         "Maybe I can help you."
   Hart: "What do you want to know?"
    >HELP
      Hart: "Sure, sure.  All right."
            "As a public servant, it's my job to serve the needs of the
             people."
            "So here's a hint..."
            "...for 500 gil."
       >Give him the money
        >With enough money
          Hart: "Oh, my... well, Thank you very much."
                "Now listen.  On this floor are four research libraries for four
                 different sections of Shinra, Inc...."
                "Parts of the password are hidden in each of the libraries."
                "Pay careful attention to the files in each room."
                "The name of each library is written on the plaque outside the
                 door."
        >If you don't have 500 gil
          Hart: "Hey now!  You're a bit short."
                "I'm sure even item stores in the slums don't give credit nowadays."
       >Forget it!
         Same as Forget it
    >Forget it
      Hart: "...I see.  Then, I guess that's that."
            "Good luck finding it on your own."
            "If you still can't find it.  I'll just be right over here.  Ready
             to tell you anytime..."
 >If you got one or two hints already
   Hart: "What can I do for you?"
    >Give me the hint again
      Repeats the previous hint
    >Give me the next hint
      Same as first hint's HELP, only hint is different
     >Second hint, 1000 gil
      "Now, in each library will be one file mixed in from another library."
      "Look carefully at the numbers on each file."
     >Third hint, 2000 gil
      "There is a number at the beginning of each file name."
      "Of course there's a number even on the files that don't belong in that
       library."
      "Match the number with the letters in the title of the file."
      "If the file starts with a 4, then check the fourth letter and... well,
       you get the idea."
    >Uh, nothing
      Same as first hint's Forget it
 >If you got all three hints already

   Barret: "Is that right?"
   Barret: "The Shinra believe that the Promised Land is full of Mako energy."
   Barret: "Which means, if the Shinra get there, they'll suck up all the Mako
            energy."
